To all whom it may concern;

Beit known that I, BERNHARD Bnnnn x, citizen of the free town of Hamburg, residing at 21 Grosse-Theater strasse, c1ty of Hamburg, German Empire, have invented certain new and useful Im roved Fatty Saponaceous Product and Me d of Manufacturing Same, of which the following 1s a specification.

This invention relates to an improved product of the nature of soap for use in laundries and the like and the method of manufacturing the same from hydrocarbons.

In the manufacture of soap from hydro-. carbons it has already been-proposed to oxidize the hydrocarbons by mixing' them with alkalis and passin air or oxygen therethrough under the app 'cation of heat. The hydrocarbons which can be employed for this .purpose decompose, however, at high temperatures, so that an attempt to obtam soaps as aforesaid, proved futile. Moreover, if, as has been suggested, the operation is carried out under pressure, the attemptto oxidize the hydrocarbons would be extremely dangerous.

According to the present invention, th

' hydrocarbons, for example vaseline oil, are

intimately mlxed in the presence of water with sodium or hydrogen peroxid admixed with alkalis or alkaline salts. In this manner, a stronger action of the-'oxygen'upon I the individual hydrocarbon molecules is attained so that the hydrocarbons become oxidized to acids by the oxygen generated during the process, the acids forming, with the alkalis added or resulting from the so-. dium peroxid and with the excess hydrocarbon, a mass easily soluble in water and applicable as a soap. Whereas, in the known methods, large quantities of the hydrocarbons are not oxldized, thus giving a poor yield, it is possible by the present process to,

oxidize up to 60% of the hydrocarbons. The intimate mixture and the reaction" of the materials therein can' also be accelerated, if desired, by the addition of alcohol.

The fo owing example is given of, the method of preparin my improved product from a quarter of a iter of vaseline oil." A mixture is first of all made of about 50 grams of crystal soda, 20 grams of potash and 5 grams of sodium peroxid. The mixture is effected by the addition of water, sufiicient water being added asto form a Application filed Jul 23,1912. Serial no. 711,097.

[thick paste. Thereupon about grams of alcohol may be added to the mixture which is then intimately mixed with the vaseline oil. After slightly stirring, the mixture thickens and more watermay be added if required. The finished product is a soft paste havin so uble in water.
